Sep 29 04:43:10 <ka6sox> rwhitby, is there any reason why we couldn't install all of the X stuff @ the end of the installation of a chroot?
Sep 29 19:13:02 <sconix> anybody know can node.js connect to unix sockets with abstract paths?
Sep 29 19:13:26 <scoutcamper> sconix, halfhalo is the crazy node guy
Sep 29 19:15:21 <halfhalo> you mean like... require('net').Socket({type:"unix").connect("/im/a/path") ?
Sep 29 19:16:04 <sconix> well kinda but I noticed that the socket I need to connect to is using abstract path i.e. there is no file/path to connect to
Sep 29 19:16:23 <sconix> in C it seems that thereis \0 before the path when connecting to abstract socket
Sep 29 19:16:33 <sconix> but I guess maybe node.js does not support such a thing
Sep 29 19:17:57 <halfhalo> can you get an fd of the socket?
Sep 29 19:19:13 <sconix> well I already modify the binary that creates the abstract socket so I could make it to tell that somehow, but maybe I just make  small c binary that sends the wanted message into the abstract socket
Sep 29 19:19:49 <sconix> or I just modify the binary to create a normal socket in addition to the abstract
Sep 29 19:20:26 <sconix> maybe thats the best option
Sep 29 19:20:51 <sconix> it might be good thing anyway to have separate socket for the custom stuff and leave the one there is for the palm stuff
Sep 29 19:24:49 <sconix> ah but its abstract socket because of chroot issue
Sep 29 19:25:07 <sconix> so I can not make it normal socket so then I guess I will make the small relay binary
Sep 29 19:27:32 <sconix> unless its so common that the null byte in the path name is enough for it to work even from node.js
